WHY WE RUN: SAVE A CHILD. SAVE A FAMILY. SAVE A CITY.

A Time 2 Read is a literacy program that desires to impact the lives of children, teachers, families, and the communities in which they live by enhancing the quality of public education and increasing reading proficiency by 3rd and 4th grades. AT2R volunteers give one hour each week to coach two 2nd grade students, thirty minutes each, in a research-based literacy program. Ideally, each student in the program participates twice per week, receiving a full hour of coaching between their two volunteers. Giving students one hour of one-on-one time each week is impossible for teachers with a classroom full, so what we train our volunteers to do not only strengthens students’ reading levels but also serves teachers, those on the front lines day after day.

For the 2023-2024 school year, A Time 2 Read:

-->had over 120 coaches
-->coached 151 2nd grade students in HISD
-->and saw those students gain an average of 240 sight words, meaning they gained almost 2 1/2 grade levels of sight words

The wellbeing of the entire Huntsville community depends upon a successful and high achieving school system.  A Time 2 Read is becoming an integral part of these efforts by providing caring volunteers who not only help students build confidence and feel successful but also encourage teachers that their community is behind them.

We tutor 2nd-grade students, not just to invest in their reading skills but to impact them for life. These consistent weekly sessions with the same adults provide them with encouragement and support that makes them feel valued and empowered. Educator Rita Pierson believed, “Every child deserves a champion–an adult who will never give up on them, who understands the power of connection, and insists that they become the best that they can possibly be.” AT2R volunteers are those champions who make powerful and lasting connections.  

The A Time 2 Read Storybook 5K & Fun Run is the organization’s largest fundraiser every year. The sponsorships, donations, and participant fees help us continue to serve students, teachers, and families in Huntsville, fulfilling our motto: 

SAVE A CHILD, SAVE A FAMILY, SAVE A CITY.
